The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical

A broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles 
southwest of the southwestern coast of Mexico is producing a large 
area of disorganized cloudiness and thunderstorms.  Conditions 
appear favorable for some gradual development of this system, 
and a tropical depression could form by the middle of next week 
while it moves little.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.

Another area of low pressure is likely to form south of the Gulf of 
Tehuantepec early next week.  Some slow development of this system 
is possible thereafter while it drifts northward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent.
